Herald-Leader Staff Report

    ORDER REPRINT →

April 07, 2009 05:43 PM

Several Kentucky hospitals have made the list of the 100 top hospitals nationwide as compiled this week by Thomson Reuters.

Lexington's Saint Joseph East is listed among the medium community hospitals, and Saint Joseph's hospital in London is included in the small community hospital category.

Also, King's Daughters Medical Center in Ashland and Baptist Hospital East in Louisville are listed among large community hospitals. St. Elizabeth Medical Center in Edgewood is among the top teaching hospitals.

The study evaluated 3,000 hospitals in nine areas: mortality, medical complications, patient safety, average length of stay, expenses, profitability, cash-to-debt ratio, patient satisfaction, and adherence to clinical standards of care
